Noise-Induced Hearing Loss and Snowmobiles

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1974
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of high-speed snowmobile engine noise on the auditory mechanism. Pre-exposure hearing tests were obtained on 21 racing drivers (42 ears) and five snowmobile mechanics (ten ears). Sound-pressure-level measurements were obtained on representative samples of high-speed engines and also on spectator ...

NOISE-INDUCED HEARING LOSS

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1950
INTRODUCTION HEARING loss resulting from exposure to noise has received considerable attention in otologic literature. 1 In recent years, this type of hearing loss has assumed increased importance, partly because of its position in theories of audition but principally, perhaps, because industry is coming to realize its occurrence in those members of ...

Preventing noise-induced hearing loss

Nursing Clinics of North America, 2002
Noise-induced hearing loss is a significant, irreversible impairment, but one that is preventable. The numbers of persons, including children, exposed to high noise is increasing, necessitating the use of hearing protection if the noise cannot be reduced to a safe level.

Age and noise-induced hearing loss

Scandinavian Audiology, 2001
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of noise, age and confounders in noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). Information about work exposure, the use of hearing protective devices, audiogram, environmental and biological factors was collected from 406 paper mill workers exposed to noise levels of 91-94 dB(A), 124 forest workers exposed to ...

Prevention of Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

Preventive Medicine, 1994
Sounds of sufficient loudness and duration will damage the human ear resulting in temporary or permanent hearing loss, often accompanied by tinnitus. Irreversible inner ear damage from repeated sound overstimulation can occur at any age, including early infancy, resulting in permanent noise-induced hearing loss.

Prevention of Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1995
To review the evidence suggesting that occupational hearing conservation programs prevent noise-induced hearing loss; to describe the features, prevalence, and handicap associated with noise-induced hearing loss; and to describe the otolaryngologist's role in prevention of noise-induced hearing loss.Recent statements from the American College of ...

Noise-Induced Hearing Loss and Presbyacusis

International Journal of Audiology, 1971
The effect of aging on hearing (threshold) levels at 1 000 and 4 000 Hz was investigated in war veterans who had normal hearing for their age at 1 000 Hz and considerable hearing losses at 4 000 Hz (produced by acoustic trauma or other war-time noise exposure) when first tested audiometrically. It was found that the threshold levels at both 1 000 and 4

The AMA and Noise-induced Hearing Loss

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1969
AN editorial appearing inThe Journal( 205 :928 [Sept 23]) entitled "Noise Pollution" should stir the ire of anyone remotely interested in the protection and preservation of the organ of Corti. This editorial is written in a facetious manner, obviously criticizing a national noise study by the Public Health Service's National Center for Urban and ...
